Review: Rascal Flatts concert
3 and 1/2 stars.
The Rascal Flatts concert, held July 23 at Verizon Wireless Music Center, was an enjoyable experience for country music fans. The band entertained the audience by playing popular songs such as “Summer Nights” and “God Bless the Broken Road.” The packed concert created a great atmosphere for the thousands of fans proudly belting out familiar lyrics through the entire show. The superstar band played a good combination of older hits, such as “Fast Cars and Freedom,” as well as newer hits.
The weather, however, was extremely hot and not conducive to a lengthy show. Fans had to guzzle drinks to stay cool while Rascal Flatts played less songs than usual because of the heat. Sara Evans provided a fantastic opening for the main musicians. Her voice was beautiful and she sang only crowd favorites while she was on stage. Overall, Rascal Flatts and Sara Evans created a great summertime atmosphere, but the concert was slightly hampered by the heat and large crowds.
Check out The Doobie Brothers at Military Park Sept. 3.
